TL;DR: Kahon.ph is full-service storage with pickup. Once you book a pick-up and storage plan, our team of spacemakers comes to your door, collects your things, and stores them safely. When you need your items back, just request a delivery. Kahon.ph is the first service in the Philippines to offer this end-to-end experience.
What is storage with pickup?
Storage with pickup is exactly what it sounds like: a storage service that comes to you.
Instead of renting a unit, loading a van, and driving across the city yourself, a trained team arrives at your home or office, carefully collects your items, and brings them to a secure facility. When you need something back, you request a return delivery — and it shows up at your door.
Think of it as the difference between doing your own laundry and dropping it off at a laundry service. Same result. Way less effort.
How it works — Step by step
Getting started with storage pickup in the Philippines is straightforward. Here’s the full process:
- Book online. Choose your storage plan on Kahon.ph and pick a pickup date that works for you.
- We come to you. Our team arrives at your location with packing materials ready to go.
- We pack and catalog your items. Everything is carefully wrapped, labeled, and documented so you always know what’s in storage.
- Your items go to our secure facility. Your belongings are stored in a clean, monitored space — not a random bodega.
- Request a return anytime. When you need something back, just log in and schedule a delivery or retrieval (transportation page). We bring it straight to you.
That’s it. No truck rental. No loading and unloading. No wasted Saturday.
Storage with Pickup vs. Self-Storage
| Feature | Storage with Pickup (Kahon) | Traditional Self-Storage |
|---|---|---|
| Who comes to you | Yes — we pick up and deliver | You go to the facility |
| Packing help | Included | You pack everything yourself |
| Transport needed | None required | You need a van or truck |
| Flexible retrieval | On-demand delivery | Only during facility hours |
| Best for | Busy individuals, expats, businesses | People who need frequent daily access |
The bottom line: self-storage makes sense if you need to visit your unit every other day. For everyone else, pickup storage is faster, easier, and often more cost-effective once you factor in transport costs.
What can you store?
Kahon handles a wide range of items — from small personal belongings to large furniture. Here’s what you can store:
- Luggage and travel bags
- Sofas, beds, and bulky furniture (Kwarto storage)
- Household items and seasonal decor
- Appliances (ref, washing machine, aircon units)
- Office equipment and electronics
- Business inventory and e-commerce stock
- Boxes and packed items of all sizes (Kahon boxes)

Who is this for?
Storage with pickup isn’t just for people moving houses. It’s useful in a lot more situations than you’d think:
- Individuals decluttering their condo or apartment without a bigger place to move to yet
- Expats and foreigners in the Philippines who need flexible, short-term storage between leases
- Airbnb hosts who need to clear out a unit fast before a guest checks in
- OFWs heading abroad who want their belongings stored safely while they’re away
- Small businesses and online sellers who need extra space for inventory without committing to a warehouse
- Families renovating and need furniture out of the way temporarily
If your life involves stuff that needs to go somewhere — but you’re not ready to let it go — Kahon is for you.
How much does it cost?
We won’t pretend storage is free — but it’s probably more affordable than you think, especially when you compare it to the real cost of doing it yourself.
Think about it: hiring a van in Metro Manila costs ₱1,000–₱3,500 per trip just for transport — before you even count loading help, fuel, and your own time. With Kahon, pickup and delivery are part of the service. No surprise costs every time you need something moved.
